The best way to spend quality time with your significant other is on a trip for two. These romantic vacations allow you to escape all of life’s distractions and strengthen your relationship. This year, make your Valentine’s Day extra special by planning a romantic getaway to Ocean Shores, Washington, and Oyhut Bay Seaside Resort, which has been named Best Resort/Hotel by Seattle Magazine’s Readers’ Choice Awards. There are plenty of things to do on and off our resort property that are perfect for couples.

Things to Do in Your Ocean Shores Vacation Rental

Sometimes, the simplest things are the most romantic. If you’re looking for ideas for things to do during your Valentine’s Day vacation, consider what you can do in the comfort of your rental.

• Take advantage of your rental’s fully equipped kitchen by making a delicious dinner. Try caprese stuffed chicken, cacio e pepe, or steak au poivre.
• A quintessential date night is going to the movies. If this was your first date night activity, recreate it. If you can remember the movie you saw, see if it’s available on a streaming service or bring along a copy of the DVD, turn the lights low, and pop some popcorn.
• If you’re a crafty couple, make a scrapbook of your adventures together. This activity requires you to bring supplies from home, including pictures and mementos from your relationship.
• While not necessarily at your rental, the community fire pit is an excellent place to relax under the Washington sky. Curl up with a blanket as you reminisce over your life together. 
• Before or after relaxing by the fire, stop by Corks & Taps, one of our on-site dining options, for a nightcap. Here, you can enjoy a variety of wines and beer along with shareable plates.

What to Do in Ocean Shores

There are also plenty of things couples can do in Ocean Shores. See what art classes are taking place at The Gallery of Ocean Shores, like watercolor painting and pastel drawing. Go for a sunset stroll at Damon Point State Park, where you can find four miles of beaches and water on three sides. Disconnect from technology for a little while and explore local hiking trails, like the Weatherwax Trail or Perkins Pond Nature Trail.
